A water-skier is being pulled by a tow rope attached to a boat. As the driver pushes the throttle forward, the skier accelerates. A 70.3-kg water-skier has an initial speed of 6.10 m/s. Later, the speed increases to 11.3 m/s. Determine the work done by the net external force acting on the skier.

Introduction to Probability, 2
A motorist goes through 4 lights, each of which is found to be red with probability 1/2 . The waiting times at each light are modeled as independent normal random variables with mean 1 minute and standard deviation 1/2 minute. Let X be the total waiting time at the red lights. (a) Use the total proba

Herbivory (plant eating) has evolved repeatedly in insects, typically from meat-eating or detritus-feeding ancestors (detritus is dead organic matter). Moths and butterflies, for example, eat plants, whereas their sister group (the insect group to which they are most closely related), the caddisflies

Principles of Economics 1
Explain how the profit-maximizing rule of setting P = MC leads a perfectly competitive market to be allocatively efficient.

What is the advantage of sexual reproduction? a. Sexual reproduction allows animals to conserve resources and reproduce only during optimal conditions. b. Sexual reproduction results in offspring with diverse phenotypes, which may enhance survival of a population in a changing environment. c. Sexual

The Price Effects of Vouchers and Recipient Welfare Using Figure 154 as a starting point ( v is the voucher point and j is the publichousing point), suppose the $300 program increases the price of housing, from $1 to $1.50 per unit of housing. a. Draw the voucher budget line with a housing price of $
